Sažetak
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the leading cause of mortality in a type 1 diabetic mellitus (T1DM) in pediatric population. The prevalence of the DKA in the developed world ranges from 15% to 61% and in Croatia it is 33 to 36%. In the past few decades in Europe there have been no significant changes in the prevalence of DKA in patients with newly T1DM. In the previous preventive program known as the “Parma campaign”, which was conducted between 1991 and 1998 and reduced the prevalence of DKA from the initial 78% to the cumulative prevalence during the campaign of 12.5%. The aim of the prevention program was to reduce the prevalence of DKA in the Southern part of Croatia in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed T1DM.
